Description

Door Host 

Be the first impression. Set the tone. Make it unforgettable.

Pay: Hourly rate £12.40 + £4–£5 per hour in Tronc (on average).

In addition to your standard hourly wage, you'll receive a share of Tronc, of which 100% is distributed to the team. 

Pasture Cardiff is our bold second chapter — a true lockdown baby that’s grown into one of the city’s most vibrant dining destinations. Nestled in the heart of Cardiff, just steps from the iconic Cardiff Castle, the restaurant is built for theatre, energy, and unforgettable nights.

Our open kitchen puts live-fire cooking at the heart of the experience, with charcoal grills and dry-ageing cabinets on full display. On weekends, our resident DJ keeps the energy high late into the evening — because at Pasture, dining is a show, not just a meal.

We proudly source our beef from pasture-raised cattle across Wales and the South West, working closely with local farmers and producers to bring the best of the region to the table. Our beautiful terrace in the city centre adds a unique alfresco edge — perfect for cocktails, people-watching, and those long summer nights.

We’re looking for passionate, positive, and driven individuals to join our Cardiff crew — people who thrive in a fast-paced, high-energy environment and are ready to be part of something special.

Be the first impression. Set the tone. Make it unforgettable.

We’re on the lookout for a confident, welcoming, and highly organised Host to join the Front of House team at Pasture, a high-energy, fire-led restaurant known for bold flavours, incredible local produce, and genuine hospitality.

As our Door Host, you’ll be the face of the restaurant, the first person guests see when they arrive, and the one who sets the tone for their entire experience. This is a vital role that combines warmth, professionalism, and razor-sharp coordination. Whether it’s greeting a couple out for a special celebration, managing a wave of walk-ins on a busy Saturday, or juggling last-minute booking changes, you’ll be calm under pressure and always one step ahead.

About the Role

We’re looking for someone who ideally has experience working in restaurant reservations, reception, or guest bookings. Familiarity with SevenRooms (or similar reservation systems) is a huge plus, and you’ll need to be comfortable using email, managing digital waitlists, and updating bookings on the fly. But more than that, we want someone with real people skills—warm, clear, confident, and genuinely good with guests.

You’ll be the go-to person for creating a smooth flow at the front door—managing pacing, communicating wait times clearly, handling walk-ins and VIP bookings, and keeping the service team updated in real time. It’s a role that requires both heart and hustle.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Greeting every guest with warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail

  • Managing walk-ins, bookings, waitlists, and table turns with confidence and clarity

  • Using SevenRooms (or similar systems) to manage bookings, notes, and guest preferences

  • Communicating constantly with the floor team to maintain smooth pacing and maximise covers

  • Handling phone and email enquiries with a helpful, guest-first attitude

  • Being proactive and calm in high-pressure situations, finding solutions and keeping things moving

  • Ensuring that every guest feels seen, valued, and excited to be with us

You

You’re confident, friendly, and always in control, even when the Bar is buzzing. You’ve got a warm and approachable style, love working with people, and naturally make others feel comfortable and looked after. Organisation is your thing, and you thrive in a role that requires sharp timing, great communication, and a problem-solving mindset. Whether you're welcoming regulars or helping a walk-in get seated, you bring energy, professionalism, and heart to every shift

Benefits at Pasture:

  • The hourly rate shown includes a competitive share of Tronc: 100% of Tronc is distributed to the staff.
  • 28 days holiday - including bank holidays
  • 20% off food and drink in our restaurants for up to six people
  • Opportunity for growth and progression
  • Long service benefits
  • 1 day of paid volunteering per year, with a charity of your choice
  • Regular staff trips are arranged to our farm and to our suppliers
  • Employee assistance program provided by Hospitality Action
  • Enhanced Maternity & Paternity Pay
  • Wagestream
  • Company events and parties
In a nutshell, Pasture is about fine dining for everyone, with slick, engaging service, top-quality food and a team whose knowledge is as strong as its passion.
